Good capabilities, has a helpful interface and is straightforward to set up
We have asked for a couple of features from the company already. What typically happens is a lot of people - and developers are one of the biggest consumers of this product - go to this product to optimize their investigation process and specific configurations. That increases our data flow at times, so the cost changes. And a lot of changes happen due to that. We have asked the company to auto-revert the changes after a while so that the system works typically. We want it to work at what it is expected to work at and not really based on the updated configuration which one developer has decided to change.

Enables seamless global client monitoring with reliable remote connectivity
I use the solution to provide a perfect environment for remote connectivity with my clients. Many tools that I require for system maintenance are included. I can easily monitor all of my clients throughout the world I did not give much thought to it, however, improvements could be made to Zabbix.…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The best feature of this solution allows us to correlate logs, metrics and traces."
"The log monitoring is good, and the dashboards that we create are beneficial."
"The solution is easy to use and to start with."
"Coralogix scales well, and I will rate it nine out of ten."
"For now, we have not experienced any stability issues."
"The solution offers very good convenience filtering."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"A non-tech person can easily get used to it."
"The pricing of the product is reasonable."
"The best feature is that Zabbix can report everything, and everything in Zabbix is free."
"Zabbix is very easy to implement."
"They've already added extra features, such as noise-canceling and facial recognition, which is great."
"I'm supervising all the IT departments, and Zabbix seems quite good for them. It provides graphics and information in real time. We get alerts about crashes on the system, enabling us to quickly repair issues. We can easily find devices with problems."
"The initial setup was not complex."
"Simple network monitoring that is easy to install and manage."
"We use Zabbix to monitor our organization's IT infrastructure and workstations. We don't use Microsoft Intune since it's expensive. The tool's real-time alerting system has proved crucial for us, particularly when a new device joins a network that is not one of our own devices. It notifies us about the presence of this new device, allowing us to investigate further. Additionally, it alerts us about disk usage, memory usage, and the software installed on the machine."
 

Cons

"The features we were missing in the past were related to the way we see our metrics and aggregate our data."
"The user interface could be more intuitive and explanatory."
"Coralogix should have some AI capabilities to auto-detect anomalies and provide suggestions."
"Coralogix should have some AI capabilities to auto-detect anomalies and provide suggestions. The increasing volume of data and the resulting bandwidth charges are concerns."
"We want it to work at what it is expected to work at and not really based on the updated configuration which one developer has decided to change."
"The customizable dashboards haven't really helped with my company's efficiency at all, and I think there's room for improvement."
"The user interface is not intuitive, especially when first onboarding, and improvements could be made here."
"The documentation of the tool could be improved"
"Its UI needs to be improved a little bit more so that an end-user is also able to handle it. I can handle it, but others should also be able to handle it in a better way. It becomes complex when we are growing and need to add proxies. We need more scalability features and documentation for different use cases. A lot of articles are available, but they need to be in proper documentation. For example, when you have thousands of servers that have to be monitored in different regions of the world, there should be some kind of documentation to describe how you can create proxies and add them. Sometimes, when you are using the database, it can get overloaded. When the network is growing, the number of transactions becomes very high, and the database gets overloaded. There should be information about how to reduce the load on the MySQL database, which is what Zabbix is using. The market is growing a lot, and it should be enhanced for a lot more things. We are currently bringing enhancements at our end for different use cases. For example, when dockerization is going on, how can we check the logs inside the Dockers. We should also be able to monitor and check the number of logins and add features such as SSO login and two-factor authentication as a protocol. These are the security features and concerns that we have to deal with. Currently, we are developing modules to add features to Zabbix, but they should also work on these features."
"There are areas of improvement. The database grows really fast. So, when you install Zabbix, you have to deal with some issues, like the database. We become pretty big very fast."
"Implementation is always tailored to the customer and the kind of information we need from the client to carry it out can make them very uncomfortable. Sometimes the clients are not ready to share it."
"There are not too much documentation or manuals. We found the tutorials very easy to understand but do not go deep enough in the use of Zabbix. We need more manuals, proper use, documentation, etc."
"My company wanted to do an exercise command to access IT from Cameroon. They wanted to access an FSS to a second host with second equipment that was on another coast but it is not possible on Zabbix to do it. They want to directly access from the front-end of Zabbix to access a prompt in Zabbix to an access terminal. In the front-end, there is no way to do that. That would be an important improvement."
"The reports are not great and should be improved."
"​I would like to better be able to monitor Oracle processes.​"
"For us, the initial setup was complex"
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost of the solution is per volume of data ingested."
"We are paying roughly $5,000 a month."
"The platform has a reasonable cost. I rate the pricing a three out of ten."
"Currently, we are at a very minimal cost, which is around $400 per month since we have reduced our usage. Initially, we were at $900 per month."
"It is open source. If you want to have a subscription or official support, you can pay for it. They have different plans, which are not that expensive. The plans are based on per monitoring server, not per monitored equipment. So, it is not at all expensive, and you can also live without the support if you want a cheaper option."
"It is worth every cent to pay or even study to do your own installation."
"The product is an open source and free solution."
"We’re using the free version, which covers all our current needs."
"It is a true open-source solution, so there are no licensing costs."
"Zabbix is a free solution but the support contact costs money."
"This solution is open-source and free to use."
"The solution is free. However, many open-sourced tools start out free but eventually start charging."
